Naruto's Endless Pretense

The Uzumaki clan is a distant blood relative of the Senju clan. They are the descendants of Indra. They have inherited the body of a sage. Each clan member is born with strong vitality. The Uzumaki clan is even called the longevity village.

However, this powerful ethnic group was feared by other ethnic groups because of its excessive strength and attacked them in groups.The Kingdom of Uzumaki and Uzushio Village were destroyed, and the surviving Uzumaki clan members were scattered throughout the ninja world and could only be judged by their hair color and surname.

Because of the war and fighting, except for a few lucky ones, most people live a relatively miserable life.

For example, Nagato, for example, Xiang Rin.

"So what does this have to do with you bringing this guy back?"

Naruto, whose IQ was still in the development stage, pointed at the red-haired girl in front of him and said with an unhappy expression, obviously failing to understand Sasuke's words.

By the way, the reason why Naruto was unhappy was not that he had to take one more person on the road. Naruto was still very happy to help others.It's just that Orochimaru had just ridiculed him for not being as good as Sasuke, and Sasuke was a hero and saved the beauty, which really didn't feel good.

Damn it, not only do I owe this guy a lot of favors, I even robbed him of all the limelight!

"So Xianglin is one of your tribesmen, don't you understand what this means?"

Sasuke was really impressed by this idiot's intelligence and directly knocked the scabbard hard on Naruto's head.Naruto was stunned for a moment after being reminded by Sasuke. He immediately pressed Xianglan's shoulders regardless of the pain, with tears faintly streaming from the corners of his eyes.

"So you are one of my tribesmen?"

"Ah, I'm from the Uzumaki clan, that's right."

Xianglin was frightened by Naruto's sudden enthusiasm, and her words were somewhat incoherent.

"Great, I'm finally not alone!"

Before he finished speaking, Sasuke and Sakura's fists fell on Naruto's head at the same time.

"How to talk? Aren't we always by your side?"

Naruto scratched his head, huffed and took the phosphorus to grill fish and bear paws.Looking at Naruto and Xiang Rin walking away, Sakura pulled Sasuke aside and spoke quietly.

"So that girl got separated from her teammates?"

"Yes, I saw her being attacked by a bear and saved her."

"So Sasuke, do you understand?"

"Ah, I know."

Sasuke glanced at Xiang Rin who was grilling fish with Naruto. Xiang Rin also noticed Sasuke's gaze and turned his head away with a red face.

"Just protect her until the second exam is over. We have no obligation to help others, and our..."

As he was talking, Sasuke was suddenly pulled by Sakura's collar and forced to turn his head away.

"That's not what you're talking about. Didn't you realize that the way Xiang Lin looked at you was wrong? Did you do something else?"

"I, I don't know why this is happening. Also, what do you mean?"

Facing Sakura's accusation, Sasuke felt helpless.Xianglin must be saved, but she cannot be saved too casually.It would be troublesome if she liked him like she did in the original work. For this reason, Sasuke deliberately fought the bear a few more times and did not solve it handsomely.

But as far as the results are concerned, his strategy seems to have failed, and Xianglin still seems to like him.Having an extra Sakura is troublesome enough, but now you can play mahjong with the addition of Xianglin.

I hope that guy Xiang Lin doesn’t have the physique of a stalker like in the original novel.

"But, having said that." Sasuke reacted and looked at Sakura again. "Something has changed since you talked to Temari. I know you like..."

"do not talk."

Sakura immediately covered Sasuke's mouth with her hand.

"Although you already know the answer, I still want to find a suitable opportunity to tell you. And my agreement with Temari has not been completed yet. You can tell me the answer when the time comes."

"Just let us laugh now."

Sakura smiled sweetly facing the sunset, and Sasuke was silent for a while and laughed lightly.Although I still didn't know what Temari and Sakura talked about, I felt inexplicably relieved.

It's so nice to see their smiles.

Early the next morning, Sasuke and the other three took

Holding the incense sticks, we walked towards the central tower together.

Along the way, Naruto was bouncing and making more noise than before.It seemed that Naruto was very happy after knowing that he had a clan member.

"Okay Naruto, be quiet. We are in the Chunin Exam now, it would be bad if we attract others here."

Sakura punched Naruto unceremoniously. Xianglin couldn't say it directly because he was an outsider joining the team, so he looked at Naruto like he was an idiot.

"Sorry, sorry, but even if someone comes, I will beat them all away!" Naruto said sheepishly, scratching his head.

"You obviously have to rely on Sasuke!" Sakura said with disgust.

"First of all, I have not fully recovered. If someone comes, I may really have to rely on Naruto."

Sasuke was walking in the front, and suddenly stopped and waved to stop the noise, and his whole person became serious.

"But it seems that it is true, and it is not an enemy that Naruto alone can defeat."

I saw six people sitting there waiting on the road in front of me.Three people were tied up with ropes, presumably prisoners, and three others were wearing Suna Ninja forehead protectors.The four of them were sitting in the middle of the road, as if waiting for Sasuke and the others.

"Finally here, Uchiha Sasuke."

Gaara saw Sasuke standing and stood up.

"You caught Hinata. It seems you came specifically to find me. What, do you want to fight?"

After walking in, Sasuke discovered that it was Team [-] who was captured. It was no wonder why Gaara was able to find him. After all, the investigative abilities of these three people were top-notch.

But this would require a fight.

"No, I'm here to see you, but I'm not here to fight."

Gaara opened the lid of the gourd, letting the quicksand flow out.

"After all, I promised that this white eye wouldn't hurt you."

Sasuke looked at Temari and Kankuro with questioning eyes. Kankuro looked away worriedly, while Temari looked at him apologetically.After looking at the three people in Class [-], they all had a lot of wounds on their bodies. Hinata had a worried look on her face. She must have suffered a lot.

"But your behavior doesn't look like you're here to have a good conversation."

Gaara saw Sasuke pull out the black sword, and a look of excitement appeared on Furui Muha's face.The flow of sand became more violent.

"There is an extra person in your team, and the guardian is a grass ninja. Since he is not a companion, why don't you kill him?"

Gaara took a step forward, raised his right hand slightly, and two hands made of sand grasped Xiang Rin's ankles.Sasuke dispersed the sand with a single slash of his sword.

"As expected, you are different from me. If Temari hadn't mentioned you, I would have killed these three people."

Gaara gave up using sand for testing and instead gathered all the sand around him.

"You can try your best to protect people who have nothing to do with you. You really love everyone. Completely opposite to me. If I kill you, I will definitely be more sure of my own meaning."

"Asshole, what do you mean by irrelevant people! And you guys, please let Hinata and the others go."

Before Sasuke and Temari could react, Naruto rushed out. Countless shadow clones surrounded him, but in an instant they were swept away into smoke by Gaara's sand, and his body was kicked by Gaara. fly.

"I said, I'm not here to fight. And I'm just here to see Uchiha Sasuke. Get away from me you idiot."

Sasuke jumped up and caught Naruto, then put the black sword back into its scabbard and handed it to Sakura for safekeeping along with the short sword.

"You are wrong, Gaara. This idiot is someone who can defeat you. But let me meet you now!"

Sasuke took out a scroll and unfolded it. It was densely covered with seals, with the word "Thunder" surrounded in the center.He cut his fingers and dripped blood on them, formed an ugly seal of thunder escape, and channeled a pair of black ninja swords with barbs.

"My current condition is not very good, so I can only use external objects to help."

Sasuke directed a large amount of thunder-attribute chakra into Thunder Blade Fang, blue lightning flashed continuously, and the sky began to slowly darken.

"Come on Gaara, it's time for us to have a good fight!"
